Hello!

Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Patrick and I am a self-taught Ruby on Rails developer from Boston. Like many Ruby users, I love nice clean code that is readable, reusable, and elegant. I am incredibly passionate about my work and love learning more.

Front End & UX Design

• HTML, CSS, Javascript
• jQuery & jQuery UI
• AJAX
• Twitter Bootstrap
• Adobe Creative Suite

Rails Development

• HAML, SASS, & Coffeescript
• Various SQL flavors
• Experience with NoSQL (Mongo, Couch DB, and Neo4j)
• Cloud deployment (Heroku, AWS)
• Implementing all manner of open source ruby gems
• Incorporating available RESTful web APIs

I'm still diving into new stuff every day and incorporating it into my work. Here are a few new things I am currently assimilating and practicing:

• Ember.js
• Backbone.js
• Neo4j
• Hadoop/HBase + Map-Reduce
• Node.js
